  1. Availability & Effective Uses of Data Mehmet "Dali" Ӧztürk, Ph.D. 2015 COS Management Institute June 10-11, 2015 Fresno Pacific University Visalia, CA.

  2. Why is research/data relevant AND important? COS 2.0: The analysis of data is central to the COS Model for Integrated Planning. Core Values: Innovative thinkers and problem solvers: Proactively explore and adapt, innovative and sustainable, data driven solutions to achieve institutional excellence. • General Ethical Standards- Recognizing responsibility to the District, all managers: • Engage in research and are knowledgeable and skilled in research techniques, use sound and defensible methodologies, conduct and report investigations in a manner that minimizes the possibility that results will be misleading, inaccurate, and/or deceptively incomplete. • (Source: COS 2015 Management Handbook, pp. 6-8).

  3. The analysis of data is central to the College of the Sequoias Model for Integrated Planning and serves as an important tool in each of the District’s planning processes. Data Analysis

  4. Problem Solving We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them. ~Albert Einstein

  5. Potential Sources of Variance in Data Reporting • Information/data sources • Definitions • Methods • Methodology • Parameters used • Reporting period

  6. Retention

  7. How many words are there in this quote?

  8. Satisfaction? Growth? Success? Data Complexity Transfer? autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity spherical-homoscedastic distributions Efficiency? Equity? autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity

  9. Perspectives in Data Many different ways of looking at data 150 Data elements 4 Units

  10. Data Elements and Units of Analysis

  11. Steps for Making Sense of Data Evaluation Synthesize Analyze Feedback Comprehend Feedback Understand Organize Reformat Collect Identify Feedback

  12. Making Decisions • Data • Make sense of data • What is missing? Data without a context is pretext …can also be meaningless, useless, and misleading.

  13. Building Research Capacity • People • Systems • Processes • Protocols

  14. PEOPLE: AWARE. INFORMED. INQUIRING.
